A drive includes a housing, an adapter plate, and a cover hood. A flat support surface is provided on the housing, e.g., for placement of the cover hood, and the adapter plate is attached to the housing. A first sealing ring, e.g., an O-ring, is received on the outer circumference of the adapter plate and is arranged between the cover hood and the cover plate, e.g., for sealing. A second sealing ring, e.g., an O-ring or a flat sealing ring, is received and/or attached to the side of the adapter plate facing the support surface, and the second sealing ring is arranged between the adapter plate and the support surface, e.g., for sealing.

A driver for coupling a driving device and a driven device includes a core defining a plurality of corner chamfers and a casing formed on and encasing the core. The casing has a contoured perimeter surface and a variable casing thickness, and is compressible during an interference fit installation to a coupling socket to provide a non-lubricated coupling which has zero backlash and substantially no running noise. The core is made of a metal-based material and includes a shaft bore for receiving an input shaft. In an illustrative example, the driver core is made of a stainless steel core and the casing is made of a high wear thermoset urethane material. The metal core can be recycled from the coated driver by removal of the polymeric casing, then recoated with a new casing to form a new coated driver including the recycled metal core.
